Communications system
4Communications systemIntroductionThis system allows you to connect your mobile phone to the
vehicle and to use the hands-free mode.The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the
vehicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Available functions include making calls in hands-free mode, access to the
mobile phone address book and control of the voice recognition system.
The mobile phone communication system is activated when the ignition is
switched on. It switches off when the key is removed from the ignition.
Before using the communication system, the mobile phone should be
connected to the vehicle installation via Bluetooth ⇒ page 6.
WARNING
•Please concentrate on driving. As the driver, you have the responsibility
for your safety and that of others. For this reason, you should only use the
functions when the traffic situation allows so and in a manner that allows
you to maintain control of the vehicle. Otherwise, you run the risk of
causing an accident.•The speech system must not be used in cases of emergency, since the
voice changes in stressful situations. This could result in a failed or delayed
telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers manually!•Always observe applicable legislation.•Adjust the volume so that external warning sounds (e.g. emergency
vehicles) are always audible.
Note
•The voice control system is only available in the following languages:
Spanish, German, English, French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian and
Dutch. For other languages, the predefined language for the voice control
instructions is English. Please take the vehicle to a Technical Service if you
wish to change the language.•There are certain versions of mobile phone software that contain errors.
These errors may give rise to faulty operation of the vehicle hands-free
system. In this case, update the software for your mobile phone or consult
your mobile phone technical service.•Some mobile devices do not respond correctly to the orders of the keypad
in hands-free mode. Always use the vehicle controls to interact with the
mobile phone.•With some models of phone, some functions may not be available with
the SEAT mobile phone system. If you have any queries, please refer to the
information regarding the compatibility of your mobile phone with the SEAT
telephone system.

16Voice control: All modelsDialogue
The voice control system can be activated via the “Push to
Talk” or “PTT” key on the phone adapter or the button on the
multifunction steering wheel.In this manual, Dialogue is defined as the time in which the speech control
system may receive vocal commands and provide assistance for completion
of different functions in case the user is hesitant and unsure how to proceed.
The system also responds by vocal messages.
If a call is received, then the dialogue is immediately interrupted.
The voice control system includes the options, short dialogue and long
dialogue . The default setting is the long dialogue. The short dialogue is
recommended when you are familiar with the orders and the structure of the
voice control menu. The long dialogue offers more tips and information about
the voice control procedure.
Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:•Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.•Avoid poor articulation of words.•Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.•Keep the air vents directed away from the microphone (located on the
interior light).•At high speeds, you might need to speak louder to drown out background
noises.•Avoid other noises in the vehicle duri ng a dialogue (e.g. other passengers
speaking in the vehicle).
•Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.•The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, only
the driver should try to operate the system.•To make a call when there is heavy background noise we recommend
using the speech controlled telephone book instead of speaking individual
digits. This will help avoid mistakes when specifying telephone numbers.
